The day I shared with Michaela was wonderul! She showed me poligano a mare but first I went to the cave which was a good walk then we went to the beach area! beautiful! I didn't do coffee tasting as it had alcohol. but I didn't mind that. we went to eat at the most delicious restaurant and we chatted about all sorts of different things! Michaela is a lovely person very open minded very kind. I hope to have her for my future trips again. she is so nice and her price is very fair! unlike other tour agents!

We set up a 4 day tour during our visit to Puglia recently. Months ahead I contacted Tours of Puglia to help us get the most of our visit. Francesca asked us what we wanted to see instead of telling us “this is the Tours we have”. Our main goal was to visit our ancestral home of Alberobello. I also asked her recommendations, which she gladly provided. She set up a full 4 days of touring which included 2 night stays in Alberobello (Trullo houses) and Lecce. We visited all of the main sites of Puglia like Locorotondo, Matera , Ostuni, etc....she included an incredible meal each day, including a meal at a Masseria....our guides, Vincenzo and Flo were beyond incredible....they were like walking historic encyclopedias. Vincenzo was instrumental is us locating the street in Alberobello where our grandmother was born. They, and our drivers, went out of their way to insure we missed nothing. We were just 4, so everything could be personalized. Everything went as planned and we could not have asked for for more....we cannot recommend Tours of Puglia mort highly...

We really enjoyed this tour and I think its the best way to visit the city. The sun in august is very strong and can be heavy to walk around the old city. Francesco, our guide, was friendly and gave us very clear explanations. Its better to send them a whatsapp message (photo attached) to reserve a slot in advance, we were lucky to book last second but we noticed is not always easy to book same day. Strongly recommended tour.

A tour of the three districts in the historic center of the Sassi with panoramic stops and curiosities about the recent history of the city of Matera: from national shame to a city known and appreciated worldwide. It will also be possible to visit a cave house and a rock church. The route lasts just over an hour and in this time visitors will be able to observe the Piano area, that is, the part close to the Sassi and get to know the historical places from another perspective. The Piano area is actually the first area built immediately after the Sassi at the turn of the Renaissance.
